Please remember that "TASER" is a registered trademark of TASER International.
The continuous and increasing use of "taser" as a generic term risks trademark dilution and the commensurate devaluation of TASER International's business interests.
I would like to submit the more descriptive and accurate term, "AGONY GUN", as an acceptable substitute.
As a Star Trek fan, I did, of course, consider "Agonizer" as my suggested alternative, but I thought "Agony Gun" carried more of the desired semantic connotations.
Other Rejected Terms:
- Pain Lance
- Neurolash
- Electric Scourge
- Torment Pistol
- Convulsionator
- Spasmotron
